It is important to hold together in union with kindred souls. It is also important to know who shares the values of the union or not. Though kindness and respect for all is a given, there is no need for close association with whom you cannot share common goals. Success is given to those who are modest and adaptable. Tolerate opposition and be devoted to the union.
